Make error

[onina]

Thank's. That seemed to get it installed. I guess I now just need to update the database, although it does appear to be using the original database. Has the database structure changed between ZoneMinder-1.22.3 and ZoneMinder-1.23.3? DO I actually need to update the db?

[cordel]

Yes it has changed, so yes you need to update it. Make sure you stop ZM before updating.

Is this the lastest ffmpeg from svn?
What SVN version is it?
It would seem that they have changed the location of the header files

If this is the latest ffmpeg, you will need to cange the code in ZM to reflect the new location and let us know what version of ffmpeg you have so we can track it down and make it work in ZM.

The file you would need to change is zm_mpeg.h

I tried to post the canges here but the sanitation of the forum botchs the post so the above link will have the changes needed listed.

I can confirm this behavior with the latest SVN as per my post on the first page of this thread.

Cheers,
badone

Which SVN version do you have???
We need to track this down to the version it happened on, so the more info we have the sooner it can be fixed, short of me downloading every verion for the last two months

I finally got it working with the latest Zoneminder and ffmpeg updates. A great big thank you to all those that helped me out.
I have one other query, does anyone know how to get zoneminder to stream in flash video format (uTube style)

onina, I was asking badone, as you have already posted the version you are using
Thx though

I will be trying this out starting today as well: CentOS 5.1 ZoneMinder 1.23.3

I will let you know how it all goes, and when I am done I will post the instructions on how to do it from start to finish.

I will combine efforts from here:

I have successfully compiled ffmpeg on my centos 5.0 box, however, and adding the --with-ffmpeg flag, zoneminder compiles fine, however, i keep getting mpeg streaming disabled, rebuild with ffmpeg option message in httpd/error_log..

any ideas?

I have begun the CentOS Wiki. I will be done with all the steps toward the end of this week.

mudputty, the rev of ffmpeg you list on your wiki page, 11879, has problems, not at config or make time, but at make install. I posted a discussion page on the wiki.

The only rev of ffmpeg I've been able to successfully config/make/install and run is the very latest from their trunk. Of course, is no good for the current ZM 1.23.3 code, as evidenced by all other posts here. I sympathize with you guys and these open source projects that keep changing their APIs. It sucks, I wish I knew enough about ZM to help fix it.

BTW, I've reduced my ./configure script line to just this, and rev 11879 still didn't work:

./configure --enable-gpl --enable-shared

Just to close the loop on this... I resolved my ffmpeg make install issue for SVN rev 11879 (the rev mudpuddy's wiki page recommends). Yipee!!!

There were some faulty MakeFile lines in that rev having to do with whether or not you excluded libswscale in your configure line. Even if you didn't use "--enable-swscaler" in configure, the MakeFile was attempting to install that module at "make install" time, and of course failing because it never got built. The lines that compiled that module had the conditional make statement on it like:

Code: Select all

$(MAKE-$(CONFIG_SWSCALER)) -C libswscale  all

But the "install" target was missing the config conditional statement:

Code: Select all

 $(MAKE) -C libswscale  install-headers

So in my local copy I changed all references to libswscale to have the same conditional config line and violah... it built/installed just fine. And even more importantly ZM v1.23.3 configured/built, and installed just fine as well. Even though I didn't mention "--with-ffmpeg" on the ZM configure line it must've found the ffmpeg binary and configured itself to compile with it because after I got monitors running I was able to set ZM_STREAM_METHOD to mpeg and ZM_OPT_MPEG to ffmpeg and watched my monitors stream using Windows MP's MPEG streaming in the browser.

Anyways, I just wanted to save anyone else the hassel of having to figure this out on their own since I struggled with it for over a week. I'm not even sure what to do with the changes I've made to ffmpeg's MakeFile since their latest svn HEAD code configures/builds/installs without a hitch, so it must already be fixed there. But just in case anyone else is wondering what I changed, here's the "svn diff" output for you:

PS: Once again, kudos to you folks in the ZM development team on another great release 1.23.3. It's really a great piece of software.
